Interactive key bindings

In this book, we won't focus too much on the interactive keyboard shortcuts in Bash. This is because it's more useful to know the syntax of the shell scripting language than it is to know key bindings.

To read more about Bash key bindings, after you have finished this book, consult the Bash manual under the READLINE section, and the GNU Readline manual:

$ man bash
$ man 3 readline
